I was trying to do more inverted corks on the bag but looking at the vids in slomo (sorry they're not in slomo here, just press pause/play quickly) it's just mindfucking me bad, it almost looks like i'm doing a 180 to misty 5??? is it actually a cork 7? could you call it a d-spin? is it more a lincoln 7 type of thing?

(these poll things are so neeeeat xD)
 
That was definitely a strait lincoln. But someone else should double check because theres a chance it was a backflip.

late night trolling huh?

Go to sleep kid.
 
I hope you realize that a 180 to misty 5 is a cork 7. That's how a lot of people, including me, get taught on tramp.
 
I want to say cork 7 but that last 180 just looks so out of place and makes the whole rotation look weird

His feet came under him as he got to 630... that's how you dub 10. He's doing a cork so well you inbreds don't recognize it.
 
That first one was straight up dub cork 10 set. You need to open your chest more on the set and not curl up like a cringing t-rex.

Aaaah rotation logic hurts...and 180 to misty5 can't be a cork, cos you invert much more on misty than on cork where you shouldn't really invert at all. I'm pretty sure people learn cork7 on tramp by just doing a 3 backwards a little then tucking on a second 3 to land.

Shit, now that you say it when i get to 630 I can totally picture (not that i'd be able to) myself inverting again. But it seems really inverted to be a cork tho. Look at this vid, dude doesn't come anywhere close to how inverted I am:

Haha yeah I was tucking loads but on purpose cos I was actually trying to invert more for fun, but when i looked at the vid i didn't look like a cork
 
alright i guess you were right, gus inverts more here and the first one defo looks like mine even tho still not quite as inverted.

Next time i ski ill try keeping that rotation, would be dope to take it to snow like that imo

Try it sometime. It works. Also someday you may realize that trick names are grey areas, and not absolute in any way.

haha yeah, always fun to try to explain corks/flats/dspins/bios/rodeos/mistys to aerialists on tramp (place i go to in the city has an aerial coach) they get so mindfucked cos for them there's only 2 axis, vertical and horizontal haha. But I was just wondering what my jump actually was, if it could be called a spin or not, I know it's not the right way to set a cork 7, I was just fucking around on the bag a little

His feet still never come above his head though, yours do.

I can't remember but isn't a d-spin a cork where your feet go over your head? That makes your trick a d-spin.

It looks rad as fun by the way, keep doing it and take it to snow

dspin is basically a more inverted cork.

That's what I always thought, a d-spin is just like a flippier cork 7. But I've been told so many different things that I don't know what to believe, so regardless of what this trick is it's sick mate.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's a d spin now, that vid is basically what I do much more laid out.

Yeah I'm pretty sure dspins are flipper corks 7, I mean Candide flips much later than me here but this was a long time ago: (@2:00)
